Lenin called them 'useful idiots'. They will be pawns in the on-going overthrow of the Constitution.

I would like to call Obama the pied-piper leading the children to their own destruction... but I am more attracted to the identity of the Gallic god Ogmios, sometimes equated with Hercules, but I associate him with Hermes, master of enticing speech.

Here you see a painting by Albrecht Drürer of the golden-lipped orator with chains attached to his tongue running to the ears of his followers, dragging them along.

Nostradamus actually mentions Ogmios, possibly in connection with the end-times of this age.

I love the mythological analogies to Obama you posit in your wonderful post.

Obama...."the Pied Piper leading the children to their own destruction"

Obama...."Hermes, the master of enticing speech"

Obama....."the golden-lipped orator with chains attached to his tongue running to the ears of his followers, dragging them along" (illustrated!)

I would be afraid, very afraid to attend a speech given by Obama...checking my ears every few minutes......oh, my......

As usual, another great post, Bob.
